About Me

My healing journey started when I was just 12 years old. A ruptured appendix turned my active childhood upside down, leaving me bedridden and weak. Complications from the surgery led to months of recovery, during which I developed chronic fatigue (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis). Basic tasks became insurmountable, and my world became very small.

​

Then, my joints began to swell. By 16, I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis—a painful and debilitating condition that left me exhausted, immobile, and deeply depressed. Over the next six years, I was prescribed a carousel of pharmaceutical drugs. Each brought temporary relief but came with side effects that often felt worse than the original symptoms. I was told to expect a life of limitation—and even a wheelchair by the age of 30.

​

But something in me couldn’t accept that fate. In my early 20s, I became curious about alternative approaches to health. Inspired by stories of others who had transformed their well-being, I began experimenting. I removed gluten, dairy, and refined sugar from my diet and even tried veganism for a time. While these changes helped, they didn’t fully resolve my symptoms. That’s when I realized I needed a deeper understanding of how the body works and how to truly fuel it.

I enrolled in formal studies in Nutrition and began exploring Yoga. Reconnecting with my body through movement after years of dissociation was nothing short of transformational. Over time, with a seasonal, personalized diet and mindful practices like yoga, I reclaimed my health. Today, I feel stronger and more vibrant than ever.

​

This experience shaped my belief that we all have the capacity to heal when we understand and support our bodies. Now, as a practitioner of Nutritional and Yoga Therapy, I’m here to guide others on their own paths to thriving—whether they’re facing chronic illness, burnout, or simply seeking to feel more at home in their bodies. Together, we’ll uncover what’s possible for you.
